Objective:
to assess the association between self-care and the number of hospital readmissions of patients with heart failure (ADHF) and test the applicability of two self-care assessment tools. longitudinal study, performed in a cardiology reference hospital in southern Brazil.
Method:
it included 82 patients with a mean age of 61.85±12.33 years, 57.3% male. The mean score of self-care assessment found the scales European Heart Failure Self-care Behavior Scale and Self-care Scale for Patients with Heart Failure was unsatisfactory.
Results:
it was observed an average of 2.57±1.66 rehospitalization last year for decompensated heart failure. There was a correlation between self-care scores with the number of hospital readmissions for decompensated HF. Education and age were associated to self-care of HF patients.
Conclusion:
both scales assess self-care in a relevant way, and correlated their indexes.

Objective:
to evaluate the perception of healthcare institution collaborators in relation to knowledge management in the institution where they operate and analyze the existence of differences in this perception, based on the institution’s management model.
Method:
a study conducted in a sample consisting of 671 collaborators from 10 Portuguese healthcare institutions with different models of management. In order to assess the knowledge management perception, we used a score designed from and based on items from the scores available in the literature.

Objective:
to evaluate the impairment of social and emotional domains of hospitalized patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cells transplantation.
Method:
an observational, longitudinal study with 25 participants evaluated in the period of pre-transplant, pancytopenia and pre-hospital discharge between September 2013 and September 2014, in a reference hospital for this treatment modality in Brazil. Two international instruments were used, both of which translated and adapted to Portuguese (Brazil): Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 and Functional Assessment Cancer Therapy – Bone Marrow Transplantation.
Results:
patients have shown a statistically significant decrease in the social domain, and stability of the emotional function along the course of treatment.
Conclusion:
hematopoietic stem cell transplantation changes the social function of patients with hematologic cancer during hospitalization stage. Thus, patients should receive guidance addressing the social domain in order that it can be less affected.

Objective:
to investigate the association between physical frailty and quality of life in elderly users of primary health care in the capital of the state of Paraná.
Method:
a cross-sectional, quantitative study with 203 elders. Data collected included: physical activity questionnaires, weight loss, fatigue/exhaustion, quality of life, performance of gait speed tests, and handgrip strength.
Results:
of the 203 older adults, 115 were pre-frail, 49 were non-frail, and 39 were frail, with a significant association with functional capacity and quality of life in all groups. The dimensions resulting from physical aspects, pain, and vitality were associated with those that were non-frail.
Conclusion:
in this study, frailty syndrome was inversely proportional to the quality of life, and significantly associated with functional capacity of older adults. Physical frailty is a manageable condition which can be targeted through geriatric nursing interventions.

Objectives:
To identify in the scientific literature the prevalence, diagnostic methods, and exposure variables of latent infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis in healthcare workers.
Methods:
An integrative review of the scientific literature based on the following review question: What are the available scientific evidence in the literature that address the prevalence of latent infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis in healthcare workers and its association with possible risk factors among these workers?
Results:
Being a physician or nurse, being older, and being male were generally associated with higher prevalences. The study also showed that interferon-gamma release assays were more commonly used as a diagnostic method compared to skin tests.
Conclusions:
More studies are needed regarding the epidemiology of latent infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis in the context of healthcare workers, aiming for higher impact actions that contribute to the reduction of tuberculosis worldwide.

Objective:
to analyze the discourses about the care provided by nurses operating in Specialized HIV/Aids Outpatient Services in four public institutions of the city of Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil.
Method:
descriptive and exploratory study with a qualitative approach, which used as a method the discourse analysis.
Results:
when titling the “care as negative”, such title came from the analogy proposed by Freud (1912) with the photographic negative, represented by what that care can configure from the unconscious movement, since nurses did not perceive themselves in the care actions developed by supporting the work of other occupational categories, contributing to maintain the ideology of biomedicine.
Conclusion:
it is necessary to justify and theorize a nursing clinical practice from epistemological issues of the profession, in such a way that nurses can understand their relevance within the care provided.

Methods:
qualitative study with data obtained from observation of 21 users, 30 caregivers and 6 professionals from the home health care service in a municipality in Minas Gerais, from February to June 2018. The material was analyzed from the perspective of discourse analysis according to Michel Foucault.
Results:
team interference upon caregivers is exercised by disciplinary practices and prescriptive, authoritative and surveilling behaviors. The team’s knowledge-power relationship determines caregivers’ acceptance through convincing or through difficulty of understanding assigned orientations. Educational practices would enable caregivers to be constituted as active, participative, empowered and reflective subjects.
Final Considerations:
team practices interfere with caregivers’ ways of acting and being and they have implications in objectification and subjectification processes.

Methods:
a participatory study developed in three stages, which occurred between March 2018 and June 2019 for identifying the content, construction, and evaluation of the comic. Non-directive interviews were conducted in educational groups with 34 pregnant women. After the comic was built by a team, including a designer, an instrument was applied to 41 pregnant women to evaluate the items Objectives, Organization, Writing style, Appearance, and Motivation.
Results:
the comic contains 40 pages of contents, illustrations, and quizzes (word search, cross-puzzle, seven mistakes, etc). The pregnant women evaluated it as easy to understand, self-explanatory, aesthetically attractive, and capable of motivating good care practices during pregnancy, obtaining a minimum agreement of 92.1%.
Final Considerations:
the innovation of the educational technology consisted of incorporating the voices of pregnant women in prenatal care, with the potential to stimulate reflections and the learning process of this target audience.
